Cupid’s Advice:Â
Becoming a parent can be extremely exciting and awaiting your new baby can feel like a lifetime. By using those months that you are waiting for your bundle of joy, you and your partner can prepare, because your lives are going to take a major shift. If you and your partner are looking for ways to prepare for becoming parents, Cupid has some advice for you:
1. Learn about baby and toddler sleep: The topic of sleep is one of the biggest questions for first time parents. You and your partner should learn about sleep while you are pregnant so you can quickly pick up on sleep troubles and avoid many of the bad sleep habits parents unintentionally develop. The biggest reason children have troubles sleeping through the night is that their parents haven’t learned how to facilitate good sleep.

2. Get healthy: Before your baby arrives is a great time to focus on your own health, because once the baby comes most of your focus needs to be on the baby. This would be the best time quit smoking, develop a healthy diet, start taking vitamins, and schedule your annual physical.
